Two problems related to service brakes have been reported for the 2021 Kia Motor Forte. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I got my car April 18 2021. It is a 2021 car and I got it off the lot with only 30 miles. I had the car for only 2 months and my breaks were already making a squeaky noise. I took it in to get them replaced I asked why I needed new ones sooo quick and I was told that maybe the manufacturer breaks weren’t good. I took my car in again December 28 2021 because the breaks are making a squeaky noise again and my car is only at 7k miles. I’ve had my car for 8 months and have had my breaks changed twice when I shouldn’t of even had to get them changed because my car hasn’t even reached the mile limit for new break pads. This is absurd.
